House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries took to the House floor to claim it's a “fake, false, fraudulent narrative” that Biden refused to sit down and discuss the debt ceiling with Republicans for 97 days.
Well, don’t take it from us. Take it from Biden’s Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who made it “very clear” for months that Biden was refusing to negotiate.
Karine Jean-Pierre claimed yesterday that Biden has been engaged on debt ceiling negotiations "for months" — except she spent months insisting the exact opposite.

It’s clear that Democrats are struggling with the facts. Maybe it’s because they have “voter’s remorse” for voting against raising the debt ceiling – which was passed by House Republicans. If they are feeling such regret, it’s not too late to tell the Senate to take it up and send it to Biden’s desk.
